So we spent the entire Thanksgiving weekend with Bob's folks. We had a good time and ate WAY too much! Per usual! Decovin had some turkey, ham, chicken & noodles, mashed potato & gravy and he got passed around to the whole family...gave me a nice day off...I don't think I even changed a diaper that day! whoo hoo! He was SOOO good the whole day too, didn't cry once! He was such a trooper.
I made a new cake recipe from one of my Pampered Chef cookbooks and it was a HIT! Everyone loved it! It was rather tasty if I do say so myself. It was a Mocha Cappuccino Cake...YUM-O (too much rachel ray!)! I also made sweet potato casserole, a recipe from my good good friend I met back in college. It, also, was a HUGE hit! :-) My mother-in-law, who hates sweet potatoes, LOVED IT! YEAH!
I was sad not to see my family though, mom was sicker than a dog and I didn't want to expose baby boy to that, so we stayed put. However, about 30 minutes before we are getting ready to leave, my stomach starts cramping up and I end up in the bathroom for over an hour and then when we leave we no sooner got to a gas station and I had to run in to their bathroom (barely made it!), then we stopped at my sister-in-laws house to get some drugs and for me to use her bathroom! It took us over 3 hours to get home...we originally intended to leave at 7:30, didn't walk out of the his parents house until closer to 8:30, but we didn't actually leave the KC area until closer to 9:30...putting us home just before 11pm! It was a long evening. Oh well, what can I say?! It was still a really good weekend...
Stacy, I was going to ask you, are you having a b-day party for your babies? If so, when, where, time? I need to start planning ahead...haha! My weekends are getting fuller and fuller! I hope we can make it, whenever it is...
Oh and if you are not sitting down, please do, you will never believe what I didn't do! I didn't take ONE picture the whole weekend we were there! NOT ONE?! I don't know what came over me! Anyway...TTFN!

what's this, a post?? *gasp* ;-)
everybody's sick... i'm glad i didn't force myself to make the drive home... i would've been maaaa-aaad.
i don't like the comment moderation. i think you should turn it off. do you really get comments that are unacceptable that should be "approved by the blog author?" i'm protesting. you better watch out for the picketers... i have no idea how to spell that word...
Um, not a party so much. We did a party last year and the other kids playing and touching Abby's brand new toys really spelled disaster. So much so that this year I asked her who she wanted at her party, and she said, "Papa and Nana, and Oma and Opa...but NO friends" She was rather adamant. So, this year is just family. We might take her out on her real day for dinner at one of those places that sing to you and see how that goes. Or maybe Chuck E Cheese up in Columbia. She has a gymnastics recital on Dec 4 at 6pm if you want to come to that and have a sleepover or something. Then you can partake of the Chuck E Cheesiness the next day...tempting tempting, eh?
Possibly tempting...:-) We will have to see though...what day of the week is the 4th? I'm so far gone with time and dates...
